Did Clunes today, in a tiny car. And bought lots of books! It's #Booktown weekend!

Found a framed Sendak to hang on my wall, and a Wild Thing living in Clunes.

@VWDasher Oh, I would love a Wild Things picture for my wall! I thought about buying an extra copy of the book to frame my favourite pages. I think I almost remember the story by heart 🥰

@teadrinker I bought a copy of this years ago at a Sendak exhibition, it's expensive but utterly beautiful

(also never buy from Amazon because Bezos is a facist)

@teadrinker I bought that, oh, would be near 20 years ago. Good god it's gone up in price :( Still, beautiful book.
